Everyone is an Artist

Even my Mom used this book while studing for Interior Design

So, its been awhile since I last opened this book but now that I'm an architecture student I guess I'll have to open its yellowing pages once more.
Why am I posting about "Drawing from the Artist Within" by Betty Edwards? Well, as studio mates were being introduced to a world of measurements and artistry, one of the exercises we did reminded me of this book. The exercise was to draw a portrait of one or two of our fellow studio mates. Sounds simple enough but here is the catch: We weren't supposed to look at what we were drawing! In the end I believe everyone had a portrait made in true Picasso style.
